I received this free as a promotion, and am so glad I did. I probably wouldn't have bought it because of the price, and I thought it wouldn't stand up to weather. I was pleasantly surprised, although be very careful- I did cut it at one corner trying to cut open the tape. Wish it hadn't of been taped shut, it made it really hard to open- but overall a very nice addition to a birthday party or other event and I will definitely purchase at future events!

I don't know anyone who will ever see, much less operate one of these machines, but that doesn't mean it's not fun to watch. If you're technically oriented you'll want to watch the entire thing. For those of you who are in a hurry, I recommend watching the part about drilling (:20 to 3:10) and then the part about installing the concrete lining (5:25 to 7:25).

Last summer I built a set of craftsman style carriage doors for my house and decided to use mortise and tenon joints. I hadn't made this kind of joint before so I asked my friend, Gary Katz, how to go about cutting the deep mortises. He suggested using a lock mortising machine, a tool designed for cutting mortise locks into doors.

We will start Easter Sunday on the cool side with temperatures mostly in the middle 40s. A few rural spots will drop into the upper 30s briefly this morning.
Late-day Monday into Tuesday showers arrive in association with an area of low pressure over the Great Lakes. This system will drag a cold front across the Tri-State bringing cooler air in here Tuesday.
Monday evening look for scattered shower and thunderstorms with a better chance of showers overnight into about the first half of Tuesday.
The mercury will soar into the upper 70s on Monday.
Easter Sunday: Sunny. Warm & Pleasant! Low: 45° High: 75°

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This wine is farmed biodynamically although the vineyard is not
certified. The 2010 Parral is a blend of 40% Malbec, 30% Cabernet
Sauvignon and 30% Bonarda that is aged in American and French oak.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Sandalwood, cinnamon, bergamot, and smoky evocation of crushed stone tinge sweet concentrate of black raspberry on the nose; then follow on a palate of already velvet-like textural richness yet vibratory intensity and positively refreshing primary juiciness. Notes of iodine, chard, shrimp shell,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Lots of plum and berry character, with hints of toasted oak and chocolate. Full body, with soft and velvety tannins and a long flavorful finish."
Cellar/Tasting Notes An impressive wine from this tiny 5 acre vineyard in Napa. A classic blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grown on vines planted in 1999, it shows luscious flavors of ripe dark berries with a hint of earth and spice that are elevated by a mineral heft. Only 110 cases made.
Cellar/Tasting Notes A bottle of Quintarelli never disappoints!
The name itself stands for so much: the family, the wines, a style, a tradition, a way of doing things. After all the time, effort, patience, and care that go into the making of a bottle of Quintarelli, it truly does mean so much more..

High in vitamin A and C, apricots have been sun-dried in the Middle East for thousands of years. Today most of America's crop comes from California.
How to Choose Apricots
Select plump, fragrant fruits that are uniform in color. A bruise will not affect the flavor unless the skin is broken.
How to Store Apricots
To ripen, keep apricots at room temperature in a paper bag until soft and fragrant. If you're not eating them immediately, they'll keep refrigerated in a paper bag for up to 5 days. Dried apricots can be kept in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
How to Prepare Apricots
To pit an apricot, cut around the seam, then twist the 2 halves. The pit should pop out easily.
How to Use Apricots
Apricots are delicious in sweet tarts and other desserts, add a fruity touch to savory stuffings, and complement lamb, poultry, and pork especially well.
—Jenny Rosenstrach
Real Simple Apricot Recipes:
- Greens With Apricots and Fennel
- Roasted Apricots With Sugared Pecans and Dulce de Leche
- Spring Apricot Tart
- Apricot-Glazed Pork Chops
- Apricot Parfait

Buchanan Ingersoll In Merger Talks With Fowler White Boggs
|0 Comments
Pittsburgh-based Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney and Tampa-based Fowler White Boggs are deep in merger talks, according to top management at both firms.
"Florida is a growth state and an important market for our firm and more importantly our clients," Buchanan CEO John A. "Jack" Barbour said in a statement. "Fowler White enjoys a stellar reputation in Florida, and we have discussed with them how a combination would enhance both firms' capabilities to service clients and further each of our strategic objectives. Discussions are ongoing, so it would be premature for me to speculate on the outcome."
Fowler White chair and CEO Rhea Law confirmed the merger talks, saying Buchanan "has a very expansive number of practice groups and depth in those practice groups. So it's a particularly interesting connection. We are dominant in Florida, and they are dominant in the Northeast, and those are fast-growing areas with good prospects."
Another attraction with the proposed merger is Fowler White would gain a Miami office. When Fowler White Boggs split from Fowler White Burnett in the late 1960s, a lawsuit settlement stipulated that Fowler White Boggs could not open an office in Miami and Fowler White Burnett could not be in Tampa. A merger with Buchanan Ingersoll apparently would cure that conflict, and sources said they doubted Fowler White Burnett would pursue a challenge.
Sources say Buchanan Ingersoll and Fowler White Boggs began talking last summer, but they are still a couple months from any announcement. Partners at the firms have not voted on the merger, and a thorough vetting process is currently under,way.
The combined firm would have 550 lawyers. Buchanan Ingersoll has 450 lawyers in 15 offices primarily in the Northeast but also in Florida and California. The Florida offices are in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Tampa.
Fowler White Boggs has 97 lawyers in five Florida offices: Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, Tampa and Tallahassee.
Merger Circuit
"I think it's a great idea," said Amy Levin, a recruiter with the Legal Group in Dania Beach. "Fowler White is a small firm, and Buchanan is a national firm. Both firms are looking at growth. This builds a full-service firm for Fowler White and provides an expansion into Florida for Buchanan."
Sources said Fowler White has been looking to merge with a top law firm for at least a year. Previous talks with Memphis-based Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz fell apart for unknown reasons. More of a transactional law firm, Fowler White has struggled in recent years and lost numerous key partners in north Florida.
Buchanan Ingersoll is no stranger to large-scale mergers, though it has been a few years since the firm got into the merger circuit.

Teaching: The purpose of my work with students is to assist them in building confidence in their own knowledge base of holistic nursing practice and to jointly discover new ideas and interests in the self and other as they embark on their career choice. My philosophical orientation to education is progressive and humanistic. I believe students learn best in a supportive, trusting environment. I believe learning can occur in a variety of contexts. Objectives should be structured enough to give some direction to a learner's path, but flexible enough to weave in new and various opportunities for learning. The purpose of higher education is to inspire a passion for seeking answers. I serve as a resource person and guide, and a facilitator of inquiry and personal growth.
Experience: My specialty area is psychiatric nursing. It is complex and continually evolving as we learn more about the nature of humans. I have worked in all areas of psychiatry, including all age groups in inpatient care, for 15 years. I have been involved in the child welfare setting for the past two years as a nurse consultant. I have also done consultant work teaching Level I Medication Aides in a psychiatric group home.
Research: I am interested in how nurses can impact quality of mental health care within the child welfare system. Serious quality of care issues have come to light in the last few years within child welfare. Currently I am working with two colleagues to develop a nurse intervention within child welfare, which is based on preliminary findings from a research study that I was involved in over the last two years.

The Société des casinos du Québec is entrusted with the mission of constructing and overseeing the management of Québec's casinos.
The Government of Québec's primary objectives are to create employment, equip the province with world-class tourism infrastructures, generate additional income for the province and recover the substantial sums of money Quebecers spend in casinos outside Québec.
The mission of the Société des casinos du Québec, a public corporation, is to oversee the systematic and effective operation, management and development of the province's casinos, thereby maintaining their role and recognition as tourist attractions that provide their various clienteles with a unique gaming and entertainment experience through innovation, diverse offerings, and the utmost in courteous customer service.
Main responsibilities:
- To set the corporation's policies and oversee their application.
- To assure the consistent application of the corporation's high quality standards governing both the operational and administrative aspects of gaming.
- To maintain links between the corporation's various business units.
The Société des casinos du Québec has established an organizational structure and senior management team made up of accomplished individuals with a well-defined strategic vision and in-depth knowledge of the daily realities of casino operations and the key issues and considerations related to local tourism.
The Société des casinos du Québec attributes great importance to the quality of the food service and entertainment offered at its establishments. Its employees, selected among the graduates of the Institut de tourisme et d'hôtellerie du Québec (ITHQ), include renowned chefs and sommeliers (wine waiters and waitresses).
View the SCQ Organization Chart [PDF Format, 31 KB, Help]
Economic Spin-offs
Québec's casinos quickly forged an enviable reputation throughout the international gaming industry. They are characterized most notably by their architecture, by the importance they attach to offering exceptional customer service, and by the beauty and quality of their sites.
A few figures...
- Number of jobs directly created: over 4,947
- Number of visits* per year: over 10.3 million
- Number of visits to the casinos by visitors from outside the province each year: over 1.5 million
- Sales for 2012-2013: $848 million
- Earnings for 2012-2013: nearly $222.5 million
Economic Spin-offs for Québec
In addition to paying significant dividends to the Government of Québec, the casinos generate economic spin-offs for the entire province.
The establishment of the casinos required major fixed capital expenditures. Operating the casinos involves the creation of employment, both directly and indirectly, as well as the purchase of goods and services, 82% of which have a place of business in Québec.
Finally, other economic spin-offs can be attributed directly to the casinos' presence in Québec. In fact, the diversification of their activities led to the addition of hotel and entertainment services that have helped increase the number of clients from outside Québec and to stimulate economic development in the province.
Tourism Markets
The percentage of visits from people outside Québec is estimated at 15.8%
- The Casino de Montréal is one of the world's largest casinos. It currently welcomes 17,000 visitors per day.
- Together, the Casino de Charlevoix and Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu have become two of the most popular destinations among tourists from Québec and elsewhere.
- The Casino du Lac-Leamy Hilton Lac-Leamy Complex is one of the region's key attractions. This resort is home to a casino, a hotel, restaurants and bars, a spa and a convention centre. Le Théâtre gave over 35 representations last year and sold over 14,631 tickets.
- The Casino de Mont-Tremblant is a welcoming, upscale establishment located in a stunning natural setting. The Casino attracts resort enthusiasts, business travellers and tourists.
When Loto-Québec was first mandated by the Government to open casinos, it was to promote economic development in the province by developing new international tourism markets, while offering new services to the local population.
In 2012-2013, Québec's casinos generated $775.4 million in gaming revenues, 15.8% of which was from clients from outside the province.
The Société des casinos provides world-class lodging, food and beverage services, and superior quality boutiques in an effort to foresee the needs and surpass the expectations of its various clienteles. Recipients of numerous international awards and honours, Resto-Casino's personnel contribute in a major way to promoting Québec as a prestigious tourist destination.
Restaurants of the Highest Distinction
Thanks to the dedication and hard work of its employees, Montréal's Nuances and Lac-Leamy's Le Baccara restaurants were awarded the coveted CAA/AAA Five Diamond rating.
Internationally acclaimed chefs, including Frédéric Bourse of Italy, Rémy Giraud of Val-de-Loire and Thierry Breton of Paris, have honoured these restaurants with their presence. In fact, epicures the world over are becoming increasingly interested in the delectable offerings of these fine establishments.
Under the direction of executive chefs Jean-Pierre Curtat at the Casino de Montréal and Denis Girard at the Casino du Lac-Leamy, the casinos' restaurants attach special importance to using seasonal products from Québec whenever possible.
Québec's casinos have grown considerably over the years, and today, they welcome over 10.3 million visitors each year.
In December 1992, the Québec cabinet approved and authorized the construction of two government-run casinos: one on Île Notre-Dame, in Montréal, and the other at Pointe-au-Pic in the Charlevoix region.
The creation and management of these government-run casinos was entrusted to Loto-Québec, which subsequently created three subsidiaries: the Société des casinos du Québec, given the responsibility of building the casinos and overseeing their operation, Resto-Casino, which operates the restaurants and bars at the three casinos, and Casiloc, which is in charge of acquiring, building and overseeing the casino facilities.
In June 2008, Québec's Casinos decided to merge the management operations of Resto-Casino with those of the casinos themselves. The objective was twofold: to align the business plan objectives and strategies for all the establishments, and to increase the synergy and complementarity of the group's casino, food service and hotel operations.
History of the Casino de Montréal
Located in the former Expo'67 French Pavilion (Pavillon de la France), the Casino de Montréal was inaugurated on October 9, 1993. At the time, it housed 65 gaming tables and 1,200 slot machines. The casino was an instant success, with average daily visitor numbers reaching the 12,000 mark.
The casino was expanded for the first time in 1994 and again in 1996, when it took over the former Québec Pavilion.
Major renovations began in the fall of 2009. This investment of $305.7 million over the next four years will allow the Casino to maintain its ranking in the competitive North American market.
Among the world's largest casinos, the Casino de Montréal provides five floors of gaming, each more exciting than the last, and is one of the city's star attractions.
The Casino de Montréal features:
- a hundred of gaming tables, including 18 Texas Hold'em poker tables, more than 3,000 slot machines and 1 electronic Texas Hold'em poker table
- four restaurants
Since 1997, the casino is open day and night, and currently welcomes some 17,800 visitors a day.
History of the Casino de Charlevoix
Inaugurated on June 24, 1994, the Casino de Charlevoix was established in the Manoir Richelieu's former summer playhouse on the cliffs of Pointe-au-Pic, a panoramic site visited by vacationers for over a century.
The Casino de Charlevoix quickly became a veritable economic driver for the region and one of Charlevoix's biggest attractions.
In 1998, Loto-Québec teamed up with Canadian Pacific Hotels and the Solidarity Fund QFL to acquire Manoir Richelieu (now called Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu), renovate it and expand the Casino de Charlevoix.
Reopening in June 1999, the complex has since become a world-class resort. The Casino de Charlevoix also became the first of Québec's casinos to be linked to a hotel.
In 2009, the Casino celebrated its 15th anniversary in its newly expanded facilities.
The Casino de Charlevoix houses more than 900 slot machines and some 20 gaming tables, including 7 traditional poker tables, 950 slot machines, two bars and a scenic view of the Saint Lawrence River.
History of the Casino du Lac-Leamy
The Casino du Lac-Leamy was the first of Québec's casinos to be built from the ground up. It was inaugurated on March 24, 1996.
During the 2000-2001 fiscal year, the Société des casinos du Québec launched a major $210 million expansion project with the aim of expanding the casino, building a 350-room luxury hotel (the Hilton Lac-Leamy), conference centre and performance hall. The Hilton Lac-Leamy hotel and Le Théâtre du Casino opened their doors in the fall of 2001.
In September 2012, the Casino began a $50 million renovation project in its gaming area. Scheduled to be unveiled in January 2015, this make-over will include a new central bar and nightclub, a renovated high limits lounge and main entrance hall as well as the addition of a multimedia structure. This "Casino of Tomorrow" will create an entirely new ambiance, contributing to a renewed entertainment experience for the Casino's clientele.
History of the Casino de Mont-Tremblant
On April 13, 2008, were officially announced plans for the creation of the Casino de Mont Tremblant.
Inaugurated June 24, 2009, the Casino de Mont-Tremblant is an upscale establishment located in a stunning natural setting. Thanks to the choice of natural materials, such as water, stone, wood, leather and suede in warm and intense colours, this casino is a world in itself.
The casino's three floors house a large and distinctive assortment of games, featuring 500 slot machines, 16 gaming tables with croupiers and 4 Texas Hold'em poker tables. The casino also includes two private lounges, a seafood and grill restaurant with the capacity of 82 in the dining room and 30 on the outdoor terrasse and a bar. In September 2011, the Casino added four banquet halls with a capacity of 200 persons.

No big fashion designers were paying attention to the urban market when Daymond John began building his business in 1989.
That changed with FUBU, or "For Us, By Us," the apparel line started by John that proudly reflected its rap and hip hop roots. Since then, FUBU has become an international brand, reaching $350 million in sales at its peak. It opened the doors for other popular fashion lines such as Jay Z's RocaWear.
And it has made John a star. He's now well known as a brand and marketing expert, as well as one of the "sharks" on the television show "Shark Tank," featuring entrepreneurs pitching their ideas before John, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and three other investors.
It took some unconventional moves to get there.
FUBU started with a tie-top hat John had seen on a rap group in a video. The hat wasn't widely available and John, whose mother had taught him to sew, decided to make a few of his own. His friends liked the hats, too. So with about $40 in material, he produced a few dozen. In one day, he sold all of them on a street corner in Queens, New York and made $800 in cash.
"I learned that I was on to something," he said.
But because he lacked the funds, he shut down and restarted the business three times before it began to get its footing.
With the help of three childhood friends, J. Alexander Martin, Carl Brown and Keith Perrin, John pressed on with FUBU and expanded beyond hats to clothing. They all kept their day jobs, which for John meant waiting tables at Red Lobster.
During his off hours, however, John would hit music video sets and try to coax rappers to wear FUBU apparel in the shoot, a move that would ultimately pay off as millions of fans saw their favorite stars wearing FUBU clothing.
He heard the word "no" a lot but kept on it, seeing each trip as a new chance to further the business.
"I still see people today who have the biggest opportunity in their face and they don't take advantage of it," says John. "It didn't matter how small or large the opportunity was. I looked at everything as an opportunity."
A big break finally came when LL Cool J, a rapper who had grown up on the same street as John in Queens, agreed to pose for a photograph wearing a FUBU shirt. To do so was a risk for LL Cool J, whose star was on the rise.
"But he looked at me and said, 'I wouldn't be where I was if people around my neighborhood hadn't helped me,'" said John, who keeps in touch with LL Cool J, now starring on the television drama "NCIS: LA."
John used the photograph to market FUBU. He took it with him when he and his partners attended a major fashion trade show in Las Vegas. Unlike other fashion companies, FUBU didn't have a booth at the show. John and his partners stayed in a hotel five miles away, but they drummed up enough noise about their clothing that they landed $400,000 in orders by the end of the show.
But John didn't have the funds to manufacture the orders. Turned down by 27 banks for a business loan, he and his mother finally took out a second mortgage on their home in Queens. His partners moved in, and they turned the home into a makeshift factory.
"I would not recommend it," said John, looking back. It was a risky financial move, and one that could have cost them their house.
On the flip side, he had a plan. He had already spent several years getting to know the market and the customers. After about three years of approaching various artists, using a rotation of just 10 shirts, FUBU apparel had been worn in some 30 to 40 music videos.
A Turning Point
"I had tested the market and I knew there was demand," he said.
But he still didn't have enough funds. In a "crazy" move, his mother placed an advertisement in the New York Times looking for backers. Most of the respondents were not legitimate business people, but a few were. Ultimately, FUBU struck a deal with Samsung Textiles, which would underwrite the manufacturing of their orders.
It was a turning point for FUBU, and the move opened the door for more traditional marketing. And John continued to look for innovative ways to market FUBU. He approached small businesses from New Jersey to Philadelphia about spray painting "FUBU" onto the metal grates that protected the entrances to their business. Customers passing the stores when they were closed would see the advertisement.
More than 20 years later, FUBU is now a fashion business that also includes other lines. Last year, FUBU began selling its shoes at Wal-Mart , a move that allows the brand to reach the masses, John said.
John is also looking beyond fashion. The fashion industry has changed, he said. Instead of premium clothes, teenagers are choosing to spend their discretionary money on technology, such as smartphones and mobile apps and games.
So he hopes to bring the same entertainment influence to the technology industry as he did for fashion. Among his projects, he has teamed up with celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Serena Williams to be part of the mobile photo and video app Mobli.
He also thinks Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg should consider partnering with him. Among the brands under FUBU is FB Legacy. Consumers confuse that brand with Facebook's ticker symbol.
"We get calls for FB, with people wanting it because "fb" is Facebook," he said. "I think there could be a great partnership there."
John also finished taping the latest season of "Shark Tank" in late July. It begins airing Sept. 14.
"I know my drive," John said. "I only stop when I am dead and I am not there yet." Email us at email@example.com and follow us on Twitter

Assembly Bill 545 will deny Washoe County School District millions of dollars in new funding. The bill seeks to change the population threshold for approximately $3.9 million in room taxes that WCSD is entitled to when Washoe County population reaches 400,000. U.S. Census 2010 reported Washoe's population at 416,000. Additional millions for the school district are also available from real estate transfer taxes. The bill originator, Legislative counsel, has recommended changing the population threshold from 400,000 to 700,000 in over two hundred individual NRS, including those that have significant detrimental financial impact to Washoe County. Although Clark County and its school district have benefited from the current population thresholds, the Legislature is looking at denying the same financial benefits to Washoe County. Legislative counsel is prohibited by law from initiating bills that "urge" or "recommend" legislation; however, the bill is making its way through the Assembly with Washoe County legislative member support. Unless citizens call their county commissioners and urge immediate public hearings on every NRS change that affects Washoe County, the bill will pass unopposed. We also need to call and email our legislative representatives and express opposition to AB545. Encourage your commissioners, city council members and school board of trustees to do the same.

While she did not leave the company after Wrestlemania 30 like rumored, Vickie Guerrero still intends on moving on from WWE at some point in time. She has already given notice to management, and she still continues to work on her college degree and business ventures. Guerrero wants to maintain a good working relationship with WWE.

April 17, 2014
It was heavily speculated that Brock Lesnar would be taking time off after Wrestlemania 30, and it looks like the rumors are true. WWE has removed him from their list of available performers backstage. There are talks that he could be out until Summerslam 2014, unless management can convince him to work some dates before then.
April 17, 2014
While he worked the battle royal at Wrestlemania 30, the Great Khali is not actively back on the road with WWE after all. The former world heavyweight champion is being given another four weeks off. He is scheduled to return to television in the middle of May. No word yet on why he is being give time off, but there are some rumors that he is injured.
April 17, 2014
After being heavily rumored to be leaving the company after Wrestlemania 30, Vickie Guerrero has continued to be on the road for WWE. This week, she worked the Smackdown taping. Afterwards, the wrestlers got together and threw her a little birthday party once the television taping was done. She turned 46 today.

April 16, 2014
WWE has issued a statement touting the fact that a record number of households watched Wrestlemania 30 this year. That total comes from both the WWE Network and traditional pay per view buys. One of the reasons why Vince McMahon wanted to launch the online service was to draw in more people for the pay per view with the lower monthly pricing.
April 16, 2014
Since there was still a buzz surrounding the professional wrestling industry, many had expected viewership for Monday Night Raw to increase this week because the company was doing a tribute to the Ultimate Warrior, who died last week. WWE was disappointed to learn that fewer people tuned in this week than for the episode after Wrestlemania 30.
April 16, 2014
Prior to Wrestlemania 30, there were plans in place to push Alberto Del Rio towards Big E Langston and the WWE Intercontinental Championship, so when the tournament was announced, many viewed Del Rio as a top candidate to win. However, management has changed their minds on that push, as evident by the fact that Del Rio lost to Rob Van Dam on Monday Night Raw this week.
April 16, 2014
After beating Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista at Wrestlemania 30 for the heavyweight championship, a lot of fans wondered who WWE will choose to work with Bryan in his first month as champion. As of right now, it looks like management is leaning heavily towards Kane to be his first major opponent. The two are expected to work Extreme Rules 2014 together.
April 15, 2014
While a lot of people assume that he is an asshole because of his reserved nature, Brock Lesnar actually impressed quite a bit of people in WWE with the amount of respect that he showed the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 30. Not only did he thanks Undertaker in the ring for letting him beat the streak, Lesnar also rode to the hospital afterwards to visit Undertaker.
April 15, 2014
It has been a rather busy month for the Rock. First, he flies into New Olreans to give WWE a hand with Wrestlemania 30. Then, he heads over to England to finalize things with the Hercules movie. Rock also stopped in Dubai to do some promotional work. His next stop is Australia, where the former WWE champion will start shooting the San Andreas movie.
April 15, 2014
"I assume that he hasn't signed with WWE only because WWE hasn't announced it. Signing Sting would create positive news for WWE as he is a major star that WWE can monetize in a variety of ways if he comes aboard. I don't see Sting even needing to wrestle to be a viable asset to WWE if he does sign with the company. If Sting did have one match it WWE it would need to be a long build, much anticipated one that has a significant payoff at a major event more specifically Wrestlemania 31." - Jim Ross talks about the rumors of Sting signing with WWE
April 15, 2014
Since the company was not exactly pleased with the amount of subscribers that have already signed up, Vince McMahon and company are offering another free trial for the WWE Network. Management wants to get a lot closer to the one million mark before the year ends, so that they can tout the project as a success. A replay of Wrestlemania 30 is being included with the free trial.
April 14, 2014
In a sign of just how valued he is within the company, Michael Hayes is still with WWE. He remains a fairly high ranking official for the company and has a big role backstage, even though he has had so many incidents and suspensions. WWE is even tossing around the idea of inducting the Freebirds into the hall of fame during Wrestlemania 32, which is rumored to be held in Texas.
April 14, 2014
Rumors have it that Triple H is the main driving force behind Bruno Sammartino staying involved with WWE. The company already has received his biggest marketing contributions when he was inducted into the hall of fame, but since HHH is a big fan of Sammartino, the two sides are maintaining a working relationship. Sammartino was at Wrestlemania 30 weekend, even though he was not featured on screen.
April 14, 2014
After his cameo appearance at Wrestlemania 30, the Rock has headed back to England to put in more work into the Hercules film. While WWE fans were hoping that he would stick around and make a couple of more appearances, the former world heavyweight champion is not expected to make another return for the foreseeable future. WWE is still trying to convince him to come back in 2015.
April 14, 2014
When Vince McMahon decided to end the legendary winning streak at Wrestlemania 30, he knew it would be a tricky situation to pull off. WWE officials were said to be quite disappointed with how things turned out. They managed to shock the audience like they wanted to. However, they were hoping for a much better send off for Undertaker from the fans.
April 13, 2014
In a rather interesting segment at a WWE live event in England, ring announcer Tony Chimel kicked Curtis Axel in the gut and delivered a Stone Cold Stunner.

Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Men's Prometheus Vest:
I am going to use this a lot. Sometimes you just need some warmth and a full jacket is too much. This has plenty of versatility built in. I like that it extends over my hips and has a draw string at the bottom to hold in the warmth.
Fit wise, I got a large. I am 5' 11" 185 lbs with a 35" waist. The medium was too snug in the body.
I also use it under a parka on cool rainy days. The insulation is warm but not too warm. The outer fabric seems like it will hold up pretty well, although I haven't been rough on it yet. Time will tell. The seams are well done and quality is excellent. I have a lot of other gear and this is among the best in workmanship.

Fred Joseph Lundborg IV, 26, of Anniston, was arrested Monday at 6:15 p.m. in the Quintard Mall parking lot when police caught him allegedly trying to sell a .38 caliber pistol to a minor, Oxford police Chief Bill Partridge said. When police identified Lundborg, they discovered an active second-degree theft warrant for his arrest from an incident that occurred on Feb. 14, Partridge said.
According to Partridge, Lundborg stole two desktop computers from Walmart at 92 Plaza Lane around 3 a.m. Feb. 14. Police used video surveillance from the store to identify Lundborg as the suspect, Partridge said.
The chief said Lundborg also has pending charges for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Lundborg was in the Oxford City Jail as of this morning. Bond and a court date had not been scheduled as of this afternoon.

The Albemarle County Police Department now has more money to keep its K-9 officers trained and fed, thanks to a donation from the Dalai Lama.
The $4,000 check was presented on Thursday. It's one of several community donations the Dalai Lama brought during his visit to Charlottesville in October. Some of the department's dogs helped with security during that visit.
Now the money will help the department keep its dogs fit.
"Each year it costs close to $2,000 per animal for their care, feeding, and training," said Chris Craytor with the Albemarle County Police Foundation. "It also creates funding for future animals because the dogs do age, and over time they do retire, like our regular two-footed officers."
The department also uses its K-9 officers to sniff out drugs and chase down suspects.

As I have been saying, the Lakers are going to be huge. I mean really huge. The only problem with huge is that it is not good for the heart. And we know that the Lakers have a weak heart. That plus the yellow. The two problems that Rico needs to work on. I haven't seen any action there. Perhaps he is too depress.

Those heartless Fakers have won 5 rings in the last 12 years while we have 1 in the last 27 years. Plus the last time we faced them they showed us who were the heartless ones.
[/QUOTE]Rico, heart becomes an issue only when it is not functioning normally. Take your case. While the Lakers were laying down with heart trouble and beating up JJ Barea, your heart was not functioning very well either. You had to lie down, take a rest and vanish. Now that the Lakers have become HUGE, your heart is functioning better. But be careful and take it easy in case the heart problems develop again.
BTW ask any doctor and they will tell you that being big is not an issue. But suddenly becoming HUGE? Boy, that can be very bad for the heart not to mention the rest of the body. The separate body parts stop functioning well together. The legs don't support the body. The back gives way.
I have a remedy for you. Go Green! A large dose of yellow is not good for you. On the other hand green is really good for the heart. Just check out the faithful here. Their heart does not waver. They are here and they are strong. Go Green bro, Go Green!!

Michele Reynolds joined Bay Club Fitness last December, hoping to avoid the extra pounds that often result from all of the holiday parties and family gatherings held this time of year.
Michele Reynolds, a member of the Bay Club fitness center in Portland, works out on exercise machines regularly to keep in shape. Reynolds vowed to get healthier this year, and succeeded – shedding 13 pounds with a better diet and workouts during her lunch breaks.
John Ewing/Staff Photographer
Her strategy worked and propelled the North Yarmouth resident through a healthier year. In that time, she dropped 13 pounds by improving her diet, cutting out extra carbs and working out three days a week at the One City Center fitness club during lunch breaks from her job at Portland City Hall.
"I didn't want to gain weight during the holidays and I stuck with it," Reynolds said during a recent workout. "I always feel better afterward."
Though Reynolds' effort may seem admirable but unattainable to some, fitness, food and mental health experts say her approach to staying healthy and upbeat during the holiday season is a good model to follow.
They suggest a variety of simple ways to stave off the pounds and manage the stress that can come between Christmas and New Year's. It can be as easy as choosing a wine spritzer over whisky-laced eggnog or taking a walk after a big meal rather than napping in front of the TV.
"Get outside and get moving," said Benjamin Towne, a lecturer in exercise, health and sports sciences at the University of Southern Maine. "It helps with digestion, it burns calories and, if nothing else, you get away from the in-laws for a little while."
But including in-laws in outdoor activities could help to improve strained relationships.
"You might find you like them a lot more than you thought," Towne said.
Towne, who's also the athletic trainer for the U.S. bobsled and skeleton team, recommends giving gifts that encourage friends and family members to get active, especially if the weather cooperates and delivers snow or allows lakes to freeze.
Sleds, snowshoes, skates and cross-country skis are good gift choices that can provide hours of relatively inexpensive outdoor fun long after the holidays, Towne said. Ice-and-snow cleats such as Yaktrax slip over boots and running shoes, allowing walkers and runners to stay active through the winter months.
But staying active during the holidays doesn't have to cost anything or require excursions into the cold outdoors, Towne said. He suggests heading down to the basement or out to the garage for 15 minutes of activity, such as 30 seconds each of jumping jacks, push-ups, squats and other exercises.
"You move a little, start to sweat and feel good about yourself," he said.
Keeping off extra pounds during the holidays can be difficult, with gooey appetizers and sweet treats covering buffet tables at work parties, family gatherings and other events. Still, healthy food doesn't have to be tasteless or otherwise unappealing.
Deb Brooks, a professor of dietetic technology at Southern Maine Community College, tells her students to keep in mind that people eat with their eyes.
"Use color as if you're creating a painting on your table," Brooks said. "Because with color comes good nutrition."
Amid the carb-rich casseroles, salty spiral ham and greasy snack chips, Brooks recommends offering a colorful platter of vegetable sticks, including green, red and yellow peppers, carrots, celery, broccoli and cauliflower. To keep the veggies healthy, make a hummus dip with chickpeas, garlic and lemon juice or a creamy dip with protein-rich, nonfat Greek yogurt.
"It gives you lots of rich flavor and nutrition without the fat," Brooks said.
Brooks warns against cutting out everything considered unhealthy. Instead, she suggests keeping portions small and striking a balance between foods that are high in fat, salt, sugar and carbohydrates and fruits, vegetables and grains that are served as close to their natural state as possible.
